We performed phytochemical analyses of 75 samples representing 11 species: Rosa agrestis Savi, R. canina L., R. dumalis Bechst., R. glauca Pourret, R. inodora Fries, R. jundzillii Besser, R. rubiginosa L., R. sherardii Davies, R. tomentosa Sm., R. villosa L. and R. zalana Wiesb. Flavonoid content was determined spectrophotometrically, and organic acid concentrations by HPLC. The content of the studied compounds varied greatly. Interspecific differences in the amount of flavonoids and ascorbic acid were highly significant. The most common species, Rosa canina, showed low average content of vitamin C (0.51 g/100 g of dry matter) and flavonoids (41 mg/100 g DM) and high content of citric acid (3.48 g/100 g DM). Ascorbic acid was highest in R. villosa hips (avg. 2.25 g/100 g DM), flavonoids were highest in R. rubiginosa (72 mg/100 g DM), and citric acid was highest in R. tomentosa (4.34 g/100 g DM). Flavonoid level correlated negatively with the amount of citric acid (r=-0.47, p<0.001). Cluster analysis of rose species based on the content of the investi- gated compounds confirmed the validity of the division of sect. Caninae into three subsections: Rubiginosae, Vestitae and Rubrifoliae. The phytochemical variation of these roses reflects their probable phylogenetic rela- tionships as determined from morphology.

We examined the effect of cytokinin BA (1-10 µM) added to an MS medium (Murashige and Skoog 1962) on auxiliary shoot multiplication. The second group of test media contained BA (1-5 µM) and gibberellin GA3 (0.3-1.5 µM). The cultures were maintained at a phytotron temperature of 23/25°C (night/ day), 80% relative humidity, with a 16-hour photoperiod and PPFD of 30 µmol m-2 s-1, and cultured in five-week cycles. The highest multiplication rate was obtained for R. canina and R. rubiginosa (4.1 shoots per one explant) and R. dumalis (2.9 shoots per one explant), when shoots were multiplied on an MS medium supplemented with 1 µM BA and 1.5 µM GA3.

Therefore a comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to summarize the pharmacological and clinical effects of Rosa canina L. to reevaluate its usefulness in traditional medicine. For various preparations of rose hip and rose hip and seed, antioxidative and antiinflammatory effects have been demonstrated. Lipophilic constituents are involved in those mechanisms of action. The proprietary rose hip and seed powder LitozinR has been employed successfully in a number of exploratory studies in patients suffering from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and low back pain. However, the sizes of the clinical effects for the different indications need to be determined to assure clinical significance. There is also a rationale behind the use of LitozinR as part of a hypocaloric diet based on the rose hip probiotic, stool regulating and smooth muscle-relaxing actions, as well as the rose hip seed lipid-lowering, antiobese and antiulcerogenic effects.

  • Taxonomic Review of the Genus Rosa
    REVIEW ARTICLE Taxonomic Review of the Genus Rosa Nikola TOMLJENOVIĆ 1 ( ) Ivan PEJIĆ 2 Summary Species of the genus Rosa have always been known for their beauty, healing properties and nutritional value. Since only a small number of properties had been studied, attempts to classify and systematize roses until the 16th century did not give any results. Botanists of the 17th and 18th century paved the way for natural classifi cations. At the beginning of the 19th century, de Candolle and Lindley considered a larger number of morphological characters. Since the number of described species became larger, division into sections and subsections was introduced in the genus Rosa. Small diff erences between species and the number of transitional forms lead to taxonomic confusion and created many diff erent classifi cations. Th is problem was not solved in the 20th century either. In addition to the absence of clear diff erences between species, the complexity of the genus is infl uenced by extensive hybridization and incomplete sorting by origin, as well as polyploidy. Diff erent analytical methods used along with traditional, morphological methods help us clarify the phylogenetic relations within the genus and give a clearer picture of the botanical classifi cation of the genus Rosa. Molecular markers are used the most, especially AFLPs and SSRs. Nevertheless, phylogenetic relationships within the genus Rosa have not been fully clarifi ed. Th e diversity of the genus Rosa has not been specifi cally analyzed in Croatia until now.

PAZHOUHI Fertility and Infertility Research Center, Health Technology Institute, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah, Iran Abstract – Rosa canina L. (Rosacea family) is an ornamental plant with erect prickly shrub and fragrant pink or white flowers, grown for decorative purposes in gardens and landscape designs projects. It is native to Europe, northwest Africa, and western Asia. Its fruits are extensively used worldwide in food preparation. It is traditionally proposed as a dietary supplement and herbal remedy for the prevention and treatment of different human diseases. This review aimed to inves- tigate the pharmacological and therapeutic properties of R. canina in traditional medicine and sci- entific papers. Results from numerous studies indicated that this plant owned many biological po- tencies, including anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, immunomodulatory, anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, pain reduction, anti-diabetic, anti-hyperlipidemic, neuroprotective, genoprotective, anti-obesity, skin-whitening, and anti-biotic resistance reversal activity as well as exerting a positive influence on the osteoarthritis, anxiety, depression, recognition memory, urinary and reproductive systems disorders, and neutrophil respiratory burst. Nevertheless, the exact mechanism of action for these properties is not fully recognized. Due to the lack of toxicity and side effects, this plant has been considered as a valuable complementary drug for various diseases. Further clinical trials are needed to confirm the reported promising experimental effects in clinical use. KEYWORDS: Rosa canina, Anti-oxidant, Anti-cancer, Anti-diabetes, Osteoarthritis.

Accepted 13 February, 2009 A few temperate zone fruit species such as apples, pears, apricots and cherries dominate the fruit production in Eastern Anatolia region in Turkey, while the other species (e.g rose hip, hawthorn, sea buckthorn etc.) are less known. Native species grown in their natural ecosystems could be exploited as new foods, valuable natural compounds and derivatives. In the last few years, interest in the rose hip as a fruit crop has increased considerably due to its nutritive and health promoting values. The study was conducted between 2005 and 2006. Among 5000 natural growing rose hip plants around the Van region were examined and among them 26 genotypes were selected. Thirteen genotypes belong to Rosa canina. The fruit weight, length and width of genotypes were ranged between 1.79 - 4.95 g; 15.28 - 33.83 mm and 13.11 - 19.26 mm, respectively. Soluble solid content ranged from 17.73% (VRS132) to 28.45% (VRS 234). Ascorbic acid levels ranged between 517 to 1032 mg/100 ml. The phenotypically divergent genotypes identified in this study could be of much use in the future breeding program.

The highest total phenolic content was observed in Rosa canina (96 mg GAE/g DW). Rosa dumalis subsp. boissieri had the highest total fat content (1.85%), followed by Rosa pulverulenta (1.81%) and Rosa canina (1.78%), respec- tively. Nine major fatty acids were determined in rose species and a-linolenic acid was found to be dominant for all species.

The rose species across the world lead to the Assistant Professor, Department improving new varieties. Most of the species are habituated to china. More than 350 promising varieties of Floriculture and Landscape and 14 species are maintained in India. A total of 25 species in the genus Rosa have been reported to Architecture, College of grow in the wild. Eight of these have contributed to the development of modern ornamentals in the group Horticulture, Sri Konda Laxman ‘Hybrid Teas’. The use of wild roses for various purposes was studied. Distribution of all Rosa species Telangana State Horticultural available in India was mapped. Two species - R. clinophylla and R. gigantea perform well in a wide University, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Telangana, India range of warm climates in India. R. clinophylla is perhaps the world’s only tropical rose species. R. gigantea grows luxuriantly in sub-tropical climates without harsh frosts are the species habituated in India. A large number of heritage roses exist in India. Two of the most interesting of these ‘found roses’ are Telangana pink and Kakinada red rose. The mapped species will be acting as gene pools for future rose breeding in India. Keywords: Rose species, breeding, genetic resources, wild roses, India Introduction The rose, the “Queen of flowers” belongs to genus Rosa and the Rosaceae family.

    FLORIGENE PTY LTD 1 PARK DRIVE BUNDOORA VICTORIA 3083 AUSTRALIA TEL +61 3 9243 3800 FAX +61 3 9243 3888 John Cordts USDA Unit 147 4700 River Rd Riverdale MD 20737-1236 USA DATE: 23/12/09 Subject: Petition number 08-315-01p for a determination of non-regulated status for Rosa X hybrida varieties IFD-52401-4 and IFD-52901-9 – ADDENDUM 1. Dear John, As requested Florigene is submitting “Addendum 1: pests and disease for roses” to add to petition 08-315-01p. This addendum outlines some of the common pest and diseases found in roses. It also includes information from our growers in California and Colombia stating that the two transgenic lines included in the petition are normal with regard to susceptibility and control. This addendum contains no CBI information. Kind Regards, Katherine Terdich Regulatory Affairs ADDENDUM 1: PEST AND DISEASE ISSUES FOR ROSES Roses like all plants can be affected by a variety of pests and diseases. Commercial production of plants free of pests and disease requires frequent observations and strategic planning. Prevention is essential for good disease control. Since the 1980’s all commercial growers use integrated pest management (IPM) systems to control pests and diseases. IPM forecasts conditions which are favourable for disease epidemics and utilises sprays only when necessary. The most widely distributed fungal disease of roses is Powdery Mildew. Powdery Mildew is caused by the fungus Podosphaera pannosa. It usually begins to develop on young stem tissues, especially at the base of the thorns. The fungus can also attack leaves and flowers leading to poor growth and flowers of poor quality.
